McGuire had this statement in the release: “Jodi’s ability to bring readers together and start conversations about her storytelling is very special. Even with her tremendous success, we believe her growth potential is enormous, and we look forward to bringing her forthcoming fiction to an even larger readership.”

This year, Picoult (pictured, via) has released two new fiction titles. Lone Wolf hit bookstores back in March and Between the Lines (a young-adult novel she co-authored with her daughter, Samantha Van Leer) came out in June. Simon & Schuster’s Atria Books will be releasing Picoult’s next novel, The Storyteller, in February 2013.
